Good Tuesday morning,

November first has arrived and so will our first rain for the season. https://zoom.earth/#view=45.8,-98.9,4z/map=live

This storm will hit late in the day and will move through quickly and it will be over by Wednesday morning.

It looks like a 2-to-3-hour period of rain tonight, and over by 11 pm. We will see a typical 1/10 to ¼ of an inch. This is very typical for the first system that comes right around every Halloween.

The next event will be the wind and cold air. This is a cold system so temps today will be 8 to 15 degrees below normal.

Wednesday will be 15 to 20 degrees below normal; some mountain areas will even see some snow, with snow levels at 3500 feet.

Wednesday night through Thursday night will be quite windy with winds blowing 20 to 40 miles an hour with gusts of 60 in the mountains.

Friday through the weekend is dry with seasonable weather, nothing exciting.

Models are not clear, there could be a weak system Sunday into Monday that could bring a little more rain, but confidence is low at this point, stay tuned !!!

Enjoy the first real rain of the season, just enough to turn off your sprinklers for the rest of the week ☹
